It depends. The reason TurboTax (TT) thinks this is an Installment Sale (Form 6252)  is that there may have been entry or a checkmark that triggered the form 6252 into your return. Here is the best way to resolve this.  

 

Delete the Form (Desktop/Online):

 

  • Go to Tax Tools on the left menu, then select Tools.
  • Click on Delete a form.
  • Look for Form 6252 (Installment Sale Income). If it’s there, delete it.
  • If you are using desktop, go to the forms mode, select the form in the left-pane of your screen.  Once selected and when it appears in the right pane, delete the form at the bottom of the page.
  • Log out of your return and then back in to save the changes.

Now reenter your information.

 

  • Go to wages and income
  • less common income
  • Sale of Home (gain or loss)
  • There is an entry below that is titled installment sale. Avoid that.
